Three young children from the same family were among those killed in the disaster, which comes just weeks after a cyclone battered the region and destroyed camps housing thousands of Rohingya refugees. Police warned that the death toll would likely rise as emergency workers reached remote parts of the Chittagong Hills, where telephone and transport links had been cut. Many of the victims were from poor tribal communities in the remote hill district of Rangamati, close to the Indian border, where 60 people were killed when mudslides buried their homes.

    BRAVE JUSTICE ANNUAL REPORT 2020 MELINDA KATZ DISTRICT ATTORNEY Queens District Attorney 125-01 Queens Boulevard Kew Gardens, NY 11415 TABLE OF CONTENTS 2 MESSAGE FROM DISTRICT ATTORNEY MELINDA KATZ A MESSAGE FROM DISTRICT ATTORNEY MELINDA KATZ 2020 was a year like no other. From the start, I knew it would take a steady hand to achieve brave justice and create a more equitable criminal justice system while keeping Queens’ communities safe. On day one, my team and I effectuated new policies, practices and structures designed to create the safest and fairest borough in the city. We immediately began navigating through the challenging implementation of New York State’s long awaited historic bail and discovery reform. I could not have anticipated the challenges to come: those already tumultuous waters deepened in just three months’ time, as a world-wide pandemic hit the city. And not long after, our city transformed yet again in the wake of historic protests and calls for meaningful police reform. This past year, we bravely rose above the turbulent waters. We began building bridges – bridges that will keep our communities safe while embracing new, progressive approaches toward prosecution and the criminal justice system. Inside this book, we will explore the remarkable bridge building we have started, in what has proven to be an unparalleled year: A bridge to Trust – where an emphasis is placed on new progressive leadership, staff training, and a demand for excellence and professionalism throughout a newly structured organization that is designed to further our mission to achieve brave justice. A bridge to Fairness – by instituting new policies that work to address racial and economic disparities, such as reducing prosecution of low-level offenses, utilizing alternatives to cash bail, reducing incarceration, making fair and just plea agreements, and providing more opportunities for rehabilitation and redemption from past violations.

    The Crown of Madness Prologue Standing silent, the large crowd stared toward the castle door. Each held a red thorny rose, gripping it tightly and drawing blood. They stood there for nearly an hour—no one said a word and no one faltered. At last, the giant entryway opened. A procession of darkly dressed soldiers filed out in a close, uniform line, followed by the king, dressed in all white except for the dark iron crown on his head. Their leader looked tired but proud, defeated yet strong. Each step the king took was methodical. His face unchanging, he stared forward toward the platform in the center of the crowd. The tired man stopped at the edge of the path created through the audience. All but two of the knights continued on to the platform. They knelt down toward the king upon arrival at their destination. A deep, mournful horn sounded from one of the castle towers. It bellowed seven times. Roses were passed and thrown into the opening made for the king. The ground became completely obscured by the bloody flowers and the king began walking. Again, he walked slowly and deliberately, showing only strength though in great anguish. Finally, he arrived at the platform and climbed the short flight of stairs. One knight knelt at the top of the stairs, facing away from the king, and those around the platform stood to turn toward him. One by one, the warriors knelt, shortly followed by the crowd around them. All were on their knees except the king and his appointed executioner.
